The newest argument against evacuating settlements in the West Bank is that these evacuations are “ethnic cleansing.” In response, Palestinian Prime Minister Salam Fayyad surprised many this week by inviting settlers who want to stay in the West Bank to be equal citizens in a Palestinian state and remain in the West Bank (click here to read more on this invitation). As part of this offer, settlers who choose to live in a Palestinian state under Palestine law would be welcomed as citizens in a democratic Palestinian state. Although the details of this arrangement would be negotiated in the final agreement between Israel and Palestine, the idea is generating a lot of opinions and feedback.
If he thinks that we're fool enough to accept his invitation without the presence of Israeli security, he's nuts.
